Summary: An outcast necromancer and a half-demon clerk need to save the world from seashell zombies. No pressure. Everyone's always told Aspic that trouble can't help following him because of his heritage. Determined to put the lie to half-demon stereotypes, he's finally landed a good, quiet job as an herbalist's clerk where the owner trusts him to man the shop alone. What could go wrong selling coriander and thyme? When Geoffrey first enters the shop, Aspic finds the little man's eccentric appearance startling, then intriguing. Geoffrey explains, in stops and starts, that he is a theoretical necromancer researching replacements for blood magic. His current line of inquiry involves seashells—do they have any in stock? Aspic's co-workers warn him that Geoffrey is a walking disaster, but he finds himself more and more drawn to a necromancer concerned with ethical death magic. Aspic is with Geoffrey in his lab when he has his first success, but the results aren't at all what he was aiming for. Instead of raising the dead rabbit on his table, the ritual animates the seashell and rock spell components, which flee the lab and cause havoc. They soon discover that the spell-animated objects are "zombies" in that they can "infect" other inanimate things. An unorthodox necromancer and an exasperated shop clerk are going to need some unconventional help to find a working de-animation spell before the world is overrun by zombie seashells and stones gone mad.

Summary: Detective George Donavon doesn’t plan to stay in Charleston long. Skeptical and by-the-book, he’s on the fast track to the top, and he won’t let anything derail his career. Especially not Andrew Hayes, his grumpy, awkward new partner—and not the chief’s secret order to find out how said partner solves even the most difficult cases. George and Andi can’t agree on anything except their mutual dislike, but when three dead girls turn up at a storage unit, they must put their differences aside before the suspected trafficking ring claims another victim. There is no crime without witnesses. Andi knows George suspects his always-right “hunches” point to corruption, but he doesn’t care. All that matters is catching a killer… and keeping his secret. But with leads on this sprawling conspiracy drying up, he has no choice. He just can’t let his partner find out how he’s getting the information. Andi’s on the verge of losing his life, his mind, and his career. He could take George down with him…. If the violent criminals who are always one step ahead don’t get to them first.

Summary: Hank Schatz One of the hardest decisions I’ve ever made is joining the Army right out of high school. The second—knowing when it’s time to leave.

I’ve hidden my true self from my family—birth and Army—and it’s made me hard hearted. I need to live for me and ignore people’s ideas of who I should be. Without a hint of what to do next, I say goodbye to my old life and head home to Missouri. How to start that new life, though, I’m not sure. The one goal I plan to pursue is finding someone to fill my days and nights because I don’t want to be lonely anymore. Reed Bayless My job as a special education teacher in Missouri is incredibly fulfilling. The kids are amazing, and their parents are supportive.

Summary: Ox claimed to be vanilla, but Mick felt sure the big man wouldn't balk at trying a few other flavors. When a terrifying text message from Mick Water's abuser, recently escaped from prison, sends him spiraling into panic, he finds himself constantly looking over his shoulder and barely able to sleep at night.

His ex was a big man, and Mick paid dearly for that attraction.
